Default rough country fixed control arms

who has the rc fixed control arms with there 4" lift? Just wondering how drivability was after installing them. What length are the front lowers set at? What do they set your caster at? I may buy the set since they are cheap but wanted to hear how they were first. Any problems with them? I went to the rc site but cant find any specs on the control arms. I cant even find where they will just sell the control arms without the lift. Any help would be great.

Are you using the stock control arms with the cam bolts now? If so, is there a problem with the set-up that way? I have heard people say the kit is great all but the cam bolts. Any clue why not to use the cam bolts and stock arms?

I have the 6 inch kit with fixed control arms but I do not know the length, I have had to replace the bushings already once and I dont even have 5,000 miles on the kit and I actualy stretched one of the arms so bad the end of it looked like and egg and this caused the bushing to completely bust. I think for the money this is a very good kit but for rock crawling and flexing the kit as much as I do I should have went long arm from the start. If you are planning on upgrading to these arms because they are cheap I would hold out and save some money for adjustable arms that are built stronger than these.
